  • THE MAYA CIVILIZATION
    LA CIVILIZACIÓN MAYA
    THEN & NOW

    Tikal - The Grand Plaza - La Gran Plaza
    INTRODUCTION

    To the foreigner, the words 'Maya' and 'Mayan' conjure up images of archeological ruins and a lost society and culture. Currently, the word 'Chiapas' brings to mind rebellion, Sub Commandante Marcos and a sense of confusion.

    What many do not understand is the relationship between the historical Maya and today's living expression of that culture in the form of many indigenous groups. What is also not clearly understood is that the so called Chiapas crisis is not a recent conflict but, in fact, a modern expression of issues and conflicts that reach back over 400 years.

    INTRODUCCIÓN

    Para el extranjero, la palabra 'Maya' conjura imágenes de ruinas arqueológicas y de una cultura perdida y desaparecida. Hoy en día, la palabra 'Chiapas' trae a la mente ideas de rebelión, el nombre del Sub-comandante Marcos, y confusión generalizada.

    Lo que muchos no conocen es la relación entre los antiguos mayas y la expresión viva, actual, de esa cultura, representada por multitud de grupos indígenas. Lo que tampoco se entiende con claridad es que la llamada crisis de Chiapas no es un conflicto reciente, si no la expresión contemporánea de luchas y conflictos que vienen desde hace más de 400 años.
